Really. Dustox can learn hyperbeam.

And now, sadly, R.I.P. Centra the Dustox. Was with me in the run the longest. Taken down by a crit Wing Attack from a Golbat.

Hyper Beam can be taught to just about any fully-evolved Pokemon.

Yeah... And now... I accidentally the 1-way door to e4. Far from done training the new pokemon, an Exploud called Subsonik.

Well then.. It's all or nothing now. ~~Lets do this!~~

So I had Scorch defeat all of Rocket + get me an Electrode(Named it 'Generator') from the hideout.
Oh, and hes now a Typhlosion.

...And then Lance told me to go find Lugia
WHELP, WONDER WHAT I'LL BE STRUGGLING TO CATCH.

powerrave · « **Reply #864 on:** May 26, 2012, 09:45:32 AM »

Well.. I took on the E4.

1rst: Went okay. No losses, but did get rather close with nearly losing Alumic (Armaldo).
2nd: Bit of the same, nearly lost Kira (Rosalia) (only 3 HP left).
3rd: Lost Blaze (Camarupt). the rest was taken care of by Omega (Kyogre).
4th: Omega (Kyogre) and Vortex (Gyarados) were dominating here. Easy win.

Champion... It went well until he send out Armaldo. Took down both Kira and Vortex. Took it down with Alumic. Then I was up against his last, his Metagross. Not having any type advantage on my side, I had to fight with whatever I had left. Alumic, already weakened, got taken down quickly. Then I send out Omega. He used Earthquake and I used Thunder. My HP just in the orange and his still just in the green. Hoping for the best of luck, I used Thunder again, paralysing, him using hyperbeam. Omega had fallen and I only had one left, my lvl 42 Exploud named Subsonik. I used supersonic in the hope that statuses would save me in the end. When he could attack again, that hope got blasted away by another hyperbeam.

And so, my Nuzlocke on Sapphire came to an end.

oh gods yes.

A full gym of walls, and it was just plain ANNOYING to go through.

Also, that goldeen pool between ecruteak and mahogany is pretty good for training attack. Too bad seakings are rare.

All I can say is Holy Bleeping Bleep.

I did the Elite 4
And the Champion

With no Pokemon above Level 47.

My heart is pounding.

With 2 Pokemon left standing: Bert (Nidoking) and Bruce (Hitmonlee)

4 of my comrades fell in battle against the Champion, but their sacrifices were not in vain.

Synopsis:
Sidney: Was OK, had a couple close shaves but Bruce pulled through in the end, with the help of Bert, SpawnAgain (Venasaur) and Red Bull (Tauros).
Phoebe: Turned into a stall war very fast. Red Bull and Face (Glalie) were the main help here. I had a few lucky crits to break the stall but I was in no massive danger, not counting the part I fought her Level 51 Dusclops.
Glacia: Piece of Cake. Bruce set up and swept.
Drake: Queen (Milotic) easily took down Shelgon and Altaria. Bruce was very lucky taking down Kingdra and after some extremely crazy stalling, both Flygon and Salamence were taken down with Queen's help.

Wallace: Queen died T1 when Wailord got a crit on it. I eventually brought it down with Red Bull and then Tentacruel somehow had an extra Hydro Pump to kill Face. Eventually, Red Bull took it down. With the help of some X Special, I took down Ludicolo which was Double Teaming with SpawnAgain.

Then... Milotic

Stalling it required the work of SpawnAgain, Bruce and Red Bull. I thought all was lost. Red Bull was sacrificed, but it was in excellent style, after smacking Milotic with a Return. Eventually, SpawnAgain finished the job. In came Whiscash, and that wasn't too hard (but I had to pray for a Sleep Powder hit). I got a Leech Seed on Gyarados before it stupidly Hyper Beamed me. Then Bert almost killed it with Thunderbolt, but it had to recharge and I finished it off with the Leech Seed Damage.

Final Team:
ALIVE:
Bruce Level 46
Bert Level 47
DEAD:
Queen Level 43
Face Level 41
Red Bull Level 46
SpawnAgain Level 46

It is over. I have won. But by the skin of my teeth

Your Rom evolves your Trade-Specific Pokemon?
Coolness.

Naryar · « **Reply #871 on:** May 26, 2012, 05:38:35 PM »

yeah so

Was pretty sure I could get over +5 SpAtk with the loads of Girafarig and Flaaffy (or whatever that incredibly unmanly pokemon is named. At least it's useful for SpA EV training) I killed.

Aww, no one cares about my epic journey

So now we know Nary is giving more SpAtk, to a Special Attack-whore.
Cool.

CAUGHT !

Bought some gen5 cards... I was like "wtf" when I saw Throh... I also got Suicune & Reshiram. There are few cool pokemon in gen5, but I think that only 4 generations would been the best.

this... I agree with... Though not the part about there being a few cool pokemon in there. Even the legendaries look lame.
Just 4 gens and it could have been all cool. But Nintendo wouldn't be Nintendo if they didn't go milking out everything.

Naryar · « **Reply #878 on:** May 27, 2012, 07:32:39 AM »

I think gen I and gen II pokémon were the best, but I've never actually played in Hoenn and Sinnoh.

Although there are certainly cool pokémon in these, but still pokémon overall quality seems to be degrading.

powerrave · « **Reply #879 on:** May 27, 2012, 07:46:04 AM »

I've played all the first 4 gens and you are right on it degrading. I do think Hoenn is still pretty cool.
From Gen 5 I've only seen the pokemon, having looked in the pokedex on Serebii. Didn't like it at all. Sinnoh still has some cool pokemon, but not too much either.

Other news, I'll be doing a Nuzlocke on the romhack called Flora Sky.
